Xtreme Bass Tackle Alewife Tube – New for 2014

Alewife

Alewife is the latest in a relentless effort on the part of Xtreme Bass Tackle to bring the very best competitive tools in the field of competitive bass fishing. If the year 2013 taught us one thing about the feeding habits of smallmouth bass, they were feeding at the surface and in the mid-ranges of the water column like rarely seen before. Their prey…the alewife!

During research outings we cast at schools of bass chasing minnows to the surface. With the baits that we had available we had limited success. We could see the big bass but most of the time they would pass up what we were offering. The ones we did catch would throw alewife up on the deck of the boat. That’s when I decided a new bait design would be the advantage we were looking for.
